Etymology: Labidesthes: Greek, labidos = pair of forceps + Greek esthio = to eat; in reference to the shape of the mouth (Ref. 45335); vanhyningi: Named for C. Van Hyning, former Curator of Reptiles and Fishes of The Florida State Museum and collector of the holotype.

Short description
Bestämningsnycklar | Morfologi | Morfometri
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 4 - 7; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 8 - 12; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 1; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 18 - 26. This species is distinguished and differs from L. sicculus by the following characters: Labidesthes vanhyningi have the anterolateral processes of the posttemporals
shorter than width of the base (vs. L. sicculus having the processes longer than width of base); with a midlateral stripe that does not taper, usually expanding, to insertion of pectoral fin in advance of the first dorsal-fin (vs. tapering to insertion of pectoral fin in advance of first dorsal fin); a ratio of thoracic length to abdominal length less than 2 (vs. greater than 2) (Ref. 104856).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: compressed.
